On August 9, a poll sponsored by the Doug Wilder School of Public Affairs at Virginia Commonwealth University was released. It shows: Democratic incumbent Tim Kaine 49%; Republican Corey Stewart 26%; Libertarian Matt Waters 5%; undecided 20%. See this story. Thanks to Political Wire for the link.

That the incumbent is under 50 percent with such a large number of undecided is not a good sign for Senator Kaine.
Is this year’s candidate a real Libertarian or another LINO like Sarvis, aligned with the Democrats?
It’s too bad that 26% of Virginians are going to waste their vote on Confederate Corey — if they combined with the undecided 20% voted for Matt Waters, Kaine could be unseated. By the way, Confederate Corey is down by about 8 points or so from the last poll that I saw on this race. FWIW, so is Kaine — this is the first poll that I’ve seen that has him below 50%.
Polls released to the public are meaningless. Valid ones cost money and the people spending that money would obviously not want their opponents who didn’t pay to have that valuable information for free. Thus, any polls like this are just propaganda designed to manipulate the electorate. A serious campaign would be doing internal polls by precinct and then reacting to those results with specific local strategies to improve their results.
To Translate Tim: Boohoo waa waa not fair! Some Democrat donated $4,500 to Sarvis to help him get on the ballot. Why do we even need stupid ballot access? Why not just have the RNC and DNC pick every candidate voters will ever see? How is Sarvis allowed more than $100? Why won’t Ken Cucci say yes to having my babies?
Oh right I forgot, Sarvis had no effect on the race https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2013/11/07/robert-sarvis-didnt-cost-ken-cuccinelli-the-virginia-governors-race/

Translation –
Why not just have Trump/Hitler and Pelosi/Lenin pick every candidate voters will ever see?

How many New Age folk are LYING to MORON pollsters for fun and games
— esp when ALL options are NOT in the poll ???
::Why not just have Trump/Hitler and Pelosi/Lenin pick every candidate voters will ever see?::
Yep that’s pretty much what Tim’s argument boils down to with what he’s referring to here.
That would be Pelosi/Stalin not Lenin!
The *terror* started with Lenin —
overthrowing the Duma elected in Nov 1917 in Jan 2018 >>> Russia Civil War – millions dead.
See WWI Apocalypse TV series
Stalin just expanded the terror esp in 1934-1938 — special purges of the old Bolsheviks in Lenin’s original gang — with more millions dead.
See Stalin Apocalypse TV series.
See the Sanders New Age gang.
Sanders/Pelosi Apocalypse TV series coming soon ???
major typo —
The *terror* started with Lenin —
overthrowing the Duma elected in Nov 1917 in Jan 1918 >>> Russia Civil War – millions dead.
